overall? >> it's getting busy but not as busy as four years ago. president obama made history when he made reelection. he was the first president that had fewer popular votes and fewer votes in the electoral college. this is likely to be more subdued out of deference to the economy and national challenges faced by the u.s.a. and the new president there are metrics to show. four years ago there was about 2 million people that showed up. this time around, experts are predicting somewhere between 600,000 to 800,000 so it could be a third of the crowd four years ago. in addition these are not expensive activities trick when you consider he has taken the oath of office and in his second term but they will do in ceremony. last time around it cost $53 million and obama administration raised that money. a lot of money but that was pretty significant amount of cash. this time around, in order to raise something close to it. they changed the rules. no more limitation to private donors, they are using corporate money something that barack obama disdained but that is something he would like to steer c

of history of the presidency of barack obama. everyone talks about how in the second term, presidents run for history. this is that first kind of draft, isn't it? >> some ways that's a dangerous concept. think about it, all of a sudden you're playing to the academic jury, that's the ultimate electorate, the people who will decide if you're a near great president or average president, you know, whether you're a teddy roosevelt or a chester arthur, and you probably shouldn't be playing to them more than any other particular interest group. i'm part of the jury. see, you only get to vote for president once are we get to vote over and over again. but presidents really, it seems to me, that's just one more interest group they should avoid tailoring their actions. >> we talk about second it terms a lot. how presidents can avoid the pitfalls that's plagued so many during the second term. >> i don't think there's a second term curse. a number of factors including the media, the 24/7 news cycle, the saturation coverage, everything that a president does or says or that his family does or says. >> i

hand on history and thought right, i'm just going to go for this. and i feel at the moment that obama, he shows signs of wanting to do that but at the moment he hasn't actually done it. >> i think what happened is he ran on a hope that he could be above ideology, that he could bring red and blue together, and it just proved very difficult, if not impossible. i think he's learned that lesson. the most important thing to look for in a second term is what does a president learn from the experience of the first term? and already you see much more fiery kinds of language. you see him willing to draw the lines, and i think that boldness -- i agree with doug. i think the second term might well be bolder, just as fdr's was bolder in the first term. fdr had it easier in some ways. it sounds crazy to say that but we were in such terrible shape that we had to do something. and the country looked for leadership. it was less clear what we needed in the financial depression than it was in the real depression. so i would say the second term is going to be the mark of what happens in the future. this

and who's paying. tom? >> barack obama's first inauguration was the biggest event in d.c. history, drawing 1.8 million people and costing approximately $130 million, according to public records. now, private donations picked up about $50 million of that. leaving taxpayers with a tab of about $80 million. so, what are we looking at this time? let's start with one of the big ticket items which is security. of course the secret service will be in charge once again, but they need a lot of help because look at all the territory they have to put under hard protection from way down here by the washington monument and the white house to way up by the capitol and there's some special needs in that area. for example, think about the parade route where the president will travel up pennsylvania avenue, passing between tens of thousands of people and probably walking part of the way. so 10,000 active military and national guard troops were used last time joined by another 8,000 police officers from 56 agencies. no one will tell us how much this cost for security reasons. for jet fighters, boats, bikes,

lies in store for the president the next four years. >> the first time president barack obama took the oath of office -- he did it in front of the biggest crowd washington d.c. has seen it all of its history. almost 2 billion people here to hear him make the promises. >> on this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dog was that for far too long have struggled our politics. >> things did not help out -- but things did not work out as he hoped. things in washington remain politically terra -- politically polarized. president knows republicans can once again put a stranglehold on his political agenda. topping his priority list, immigration reform, gun- control, and a balancing energy production with climate concerns. but his first priority is getting congress to increase the nation's debt ceiling at that talk about cutting the debt. that's where some think he will try to cement his legacy. >> he's going to try to get our long term in thailand obligations under control and set us on a new fiscal course. >> the presi

of history as we think about what president obama should be thinking about for his second term. what would you put top of the list? >> well i think it's important for this president during his second term, to -- comprehensive immigration law. we must bring the individuals that are living here in america, out of the shadow into the light. and set them on a path to citizenship, we must do that, you know, he's been inaugurated as we celebrate, and commemorate the legacy of martin luther king jr. dr. king would have us to do that. do what is right. what is fair, and what is just. he must lead this country and help lead the world for a more peaceful place. >> take us back 50 years, miss evers-williams. i think in a very bitterly divided congress people feel often -- look at the polls, people feel angry, hostile, and very divided about the direction that the country is going. so 50 years ago, was it worse? was it less divided? better? >> i think it was certainly divided. whether it was worse then, compared to now, i guess i would have to say yes, because so many lives were lost. and we know abou

is coming back. it would be great to control the debt with the debt ceiling. as you see through history, examples given it doesn't work at all. it becomes a political football, the other party not it in power, decides it's an of important thing. and president obama used to hate the debt ceilings. it's time to build something that controls the deficit properly and not arbitrary. >> brenda: toby, doesn't this basically give a blank check to washington saying we don't need a limit. at least when we have a limit we're forced to look at that number and realize how much we're borrowing. >> if that logic were true, they wouldn't have passed any of the spending stuff. first off, two countries in the world, united states and sweden who have a debt ceiling. people got rid of it, because what jonas is saying, it's political. and the second issue is, i don't want our economy held hostage and run by washington, right now, the buffoons in congress have more power over the economy with the, you know, stupid idea. if we give them this type of power we've hurt ourselves, kick the power away as far as i'

in 1937, ike in 1957. we're told that president obama studying both those inaugural addresses as he prepares for his own. let's talk about that on our roundtable and bring you in, george will. one of the reasons he might be reaching back into history is that if you look at recent second inaugurals, not all that memorable, and recent second terms, not great records. >> i would guess he would reach back not to '57 but to '37 to fdr's very combative speech. in march 4th when we inaugurated back then 1801, thomas jefferson gave a speech saying "we are all republicans, we are all federalists, we're all of one common principle." well, i don't expect to hear that from this president because he is combative, and he does feel the will of the world. the 1800 election may have been the most important election in world history because it was the first time power had been peacefully transferred after an election and this great healing moment. i think this president feels the way roosevelt did in '37. >> well, of course, nobody believes thomas jefferson and john adams snuck out of town ahead of t

. >> definitely quite a production. that's for sure, mike. tell us a little bit more about this moment in history. >> reporter: well, these are the 57th inaugural ceremonies and so we heard from president obama, and he tried to offer a bit of context about this particular moment in history. >> two figures that i admire probably more than anybody in american history are dr. king and president lincoln, so for me to have the opportunity to be sworn in using the bibles of these two men that i admire so deeply on the 150th anniversary of the emancipation proclamation, 50th anniversary of the march on washington, is i think fitting because their actions, the movements they represented, are the only reasons that it's possible for me to be inaugurated. > >> reporter: as the president reflects, he said he's also reminded this country has been through tough times before and always come out strong on the other side. jenna? >> this president gets it wouldo bibles. can you bring as many bibles as you want, mike? is there a limit? >> reporter: my understanding is yeah, you can essentially bring what you want.

the point of view of israel ever in the history of the relations between the two countries. i don't know that what he supported in the context of a peace treaty between israel and the palestinians is different from what president obama said, so i don't understand why bush with his views was considered the best friend of israel, and he really was, but why if obama is considered by some to be hostile. i don't think he is hostile. i think he's been very friendly. he financed many of the security projects of israel at a time of deep economic crisis in the united states of america. i think that he proves that he is absolutely committed to the same principles, to the same values, and to the same policies that all presidents of america over the last at least 35 years that i can recall in my own political career. >> finally, former prime minister olmert, a lot of people are asking, you know. you were the golden boy in israeli politics. you got yours in a jam, you got out of the jam. now you're free and clear. a lot of people are asking why not you jump back into the political arena? you know, yo

-- crafting the immamg of barack obama and selling him to voters. >> one i'm thrilled that malarkey has been around that long. it's an important word in our history now. but i think what people don't realize about the vice president, they focus so much on how he's this folksy guy and he speaks their language and that's absolutely true and he has a personal touch open a case like gups that's so sensitive in a state like connecticut but across the country people feel like he gets it. beyond that, he's persistent. he's going to fight like heck for this and he has kind of a combination of those two things. and that's why he's so effective. i think people shouldn't forget beyond guns he's taken on some really, not just challenging but really, not that glamorous task in this administration. whether it was the stimulus or the -- you know, the debt limit and he's taken them and run with them and he's been a real team player and, you know, somebody i think people thought really understood. >> one of the these tasks which i think is kind of buried in the resume after we announced we weren't doing miss

sunday to you, my friend. >> good day. thank you, my friend. tomorrow president obama will deliver the 57th inaugural address. the best inaugural addresses tend to rise above politics. the most universal rhetoric in our history debuted on inauguration day. that's, of course, when fdr told a nervous populace we've got nothing to fear but fear itself and during an 1801 inaugural address thomas jefferson appealed to the ideal of non-partisanship as the control of the white house shifted between parties for the very first time. referring to the major parties of the day who were bitterly divided, just like today's democrats and republicans, jefferson famously said we're all republicans. we're all federalists, and one of the most famous appeals to patriotic service came from a very young president's first and only inaugural. >> and so, my fellow americans, ask not what your country can do for you. ask what you can do for your country. >> so can barack obama reach those same heights of oratory? well, as president he has been more measured. many commentators, of course, found his first inaugural
